Will it hold enough food for my two cats if I'm gone for a couple of days?

I have three cats and two of these bowls. If I fill both bowls up in the morning, it will last them all day but they also get some wet food in the mornings. It depends on how much your cats eat each day, but I would not say that it would last them for two days if you only have one bowl. Maybe you should measure how much it takes to fill the bowl and see if they eat it all in one day. If cats get bored, they tend to nibble more, too.

Absolutely it will! The food may fill up the top bowl and the bottom, but you can fit two cups of food in this thing. As the food disappears, the cats have to "play" a little more to get to their tasty morsels.

It definitely depends on your cats -- how big they are, how much they eat, how persistent they might be with this kind of feeder(!). Also how they behave while you're away -- whether they tend to eat more or 'go off their feed.' Some cats tend to sleep more & eat less when there's not much going on. I'd say it might be kind of borderline as to whether this feeder could hold enough for more than one cat for several days, but you'd be the best judge, depending on your own cats.

Probably not, it would spill out of the holes. I put food in a few times a day that makes it harder for him to reach the food.

I know it's fine for a couple days for my one cat, but two cats it may not be enough. The problem are the holes on the side won't allow you to fill it too high. Another problem is if it's too full of food the cats can get to it easier/faster, which defeats the purpose of the bowl. If you bought two bowls then that would be perfect. I also found plastic versions that are cheaper, but they could be overturned/moved around easily.

couple of days - I would rather buy an automatic, timed feeder. My cats are quite munchers, so it will only last one day. Besides, it only holds a little more than a cup, so if you have large-breed cats with a good appetite - better think about some other options.

It kind of depends on how much your cats eat. If they are using the bowl, you can put a fair amount of food in it. My cat either couldn't figure it out, or just didn't want to. I would say it holds enough for 2 days, but not sure about three.

It depends on how much you're feeding and how often. I have 2 -- one with only one of the clear plastic container the other with 2. For the one with 2 I feed 1/4 cup daily and it definitely lasts a week. There is also an attachment for a large black container (maybe hexagonal in shape -- don't remember) but that holds a TON of food...so if you got that you should be able to feed several cats for quite a while. I personally wouldn't leave my cats alone that long without someone to check in on them just in case. A week is a long time if there were any type of malfunction or power outage.

There are little "bowls" on the base that are a bit deeper than where the tubes connect to the base. If you were trying to put a lot of food in there to avoid feeding the cats daily or you had a lot of cats I can see it being a problem if one of the tubes came off, but in my experience with my two even without the tubes it's the right amount of space for a days worth of food. At first I would remove the tubes to refill, and fill flush with the lip of these "bowls". Now though I refill with the tubes attached. They just slide into the base, but they seem to be pretty secure as far as the cats are concerned, though the dogs have gotten them loose. I can't speak to the other one on Amazon.

The feeder bowl is definitely big enough to feed 2 cats at once...the real question is: Will the 2 cats use it that way?

The smaller of the bowls will hold 2 small cans of cat food. Anymore than that and it won't keep it from freezing on top.

We have two cats and only turn the box every 2-3 days and it's fine. If you have one cat, leaving it for the weekend should be no problem! Have a great weekend!!

The feeder holds 1.5 gallons of food, or 24 cups.We buy Royal Canin Adult Cat and the feeder holds about half a 8.8 lb bag. The kibble might be lighter than some dog foods though, and I've seen the same feeder referred to as "6lb petite".I would think that the food would go stale in the feeder quicker than in a sealed container (e.g. lock'n'lock), so we only use this when traveling and never for more than 4-5 days.

I have two cats that use the system... I change the pad weekly and its not OVERLY full. So they hold ALOT

If they are the same size as Fancy Feast, yes, they will. But since they are made to fit three different size cans, they are very hard to open once they are on. But they will keep your cat's food fresh.

It might be a little crowded. I think it would be adequate for short periods of time. I use mine to hold two 8lb cats during the day while I'm at work.

Yes it will. There is room for two ten pound cats. I have two cats and they each weigh ten pounds. If the two cats get along with each other it will be fine.

yes with 12 cans and ice on top, it holds for me 4 days of food. With 12 cans off course would make the bag heavy :)

It will hold two cats. It is cute but mine is in the garage for a sick chicken. I doubt you would get more than a couple of years outdoors. I Keep it from the elements would be best.

I think it should be fine as this carrier is really good quality and durable. Our cat is 5 kg and she's got plenty of space and before I purchased this carrier I read another feedbacks that some people can fit in there even 2 cats.

It will hold anything as the sections are open at the bottom. I love this feeder because it is so big I only have to fill it every 5 days or so.

Two cats should be fine. But if you have a bigger house, you may want two robots. That's what I have and I empty the bags every week.

We took our 2 cats on a trip to a rental cabin and had one of these for each cat. There was room for their litter box, food and water bowls. They didn't mind staying in them at all. My oldest cat weighs 18 lbs. It depends on the personality of your cat.
